sway bar hardware for lowered?

My 63' has 1" drop springs and 2" drop spindles. I want to put a sway bar on it and it says if the truck is lowered 3" or more, I need hardware for lowered.

I'm wondering though, since it only has a 1" drop in the springs and the 2" is in the spindles, technically wouldnt stock mounting hardware be fine?? Brothers has one on sale for $99

It will probably be fine. Only way to know for sure is to bolt it up.

As for Brothers having one on sale, call and make sure its not backordered, unless you don't mind the wait.
